Nailed it. Food service isn't a hard job to do , it's physical without a doubt , but , work like you've got just a little horse sense and its one of the highest paying , most rewarding , not to mention the job with the best work schedules around.
When I retired I was earning just a bit above 72k a year. I was working a 3 day week , Monday , Tuesday , Thursday , for a total of around 32 to 36 hours ( on a long week ).
Sure I fingerprinted a ton of product , but now that I'm 70 , I'm hunting with guys half my age , and they are in total awe of the pace I'm able to go at.
The guys who have knee ( jumping down out of trailers , instead of climbing down ) trouble in their 40's , or have back trouble ( from trying to impress the boss ) are only hurting themselves. " work smarter , not harder " is / was my motto.
Starting at Mclane on Monday!!!

It's been 3 weeks now, all I can say is #### FS!!!! FS guys deserves the highest respect, all I can say is it's intense, I am constantly lifting boxes, push hand carts into store for hours straight. No short cuts, no freebies.
My arms hurts so bad, and a lot of bruises.
I don't know how much longer I can last.austinmike Thanks this. -

Trust me we all had doubts at first but you'll be ok just hang in there, it's always a little rough at first but once you get the route down and learn everything it will be much easier.
